Mental Health Counseling Services

Individual therapy engages individual clients working one-to-one with the therapist to foster skills development (such as emotion regulation, learning pro-social behaviors and effective problem solving) and encourages internal processing to resolve painful issues which previously lead to distress and/or maladaptive patterns of behavior.  

All mental health counseling services are delivered according to an individualized treatment plan developed collaboratively with clients, involved family members as determined by the individual client, and professionals (such as social workers, probation officers, or school counselors as applicable), as well as any other supports identified by the client. 

Starting counseling services involves completion of required consents for treatment and forms necessary to facilitate delivery of services.  This process includes gathering personal information and answering questions regarding the symptoms you are experiencing.  

Pathwise Counseling provides both Telehealth (video conferencing) and In-Person Sessions at its office location.  Please discuss which option may work best for you upon scheduling your initial session.  If you are seeking telehealth sessions, please check with your insurance company first to confirm that telehealth services are covered.  Telehealth services requires the ability to access the platform either via desktop internet or smart phone app and requires a camera so that face-to face interaction can occur. Pathwise uses the secure and HIPAA compliant "Sessions" by Psychology Today platform for telehealth services. 

Pathwise Counseling provides services to adult and adolescent clients aged 15+.

Pathwise Counseling & Skills Center can help clients address a variety of distinct or co-occurring clinical issues under the care of a dually-licensed LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) and LAC (Licensed Addiction Counselor) clinician with 26+ years’ experience.

 In my approach to counseling, I am committed to being client-centered, strength-based, culturally sensitive, and trauma informed.  I most commonly practice evidence-based methods of various Cognitive Behavioral Therapies, Positive Psychology, Mindfulness, and Person-Centered Therapy.
